Work faster with smarter task management<\/h3>\n

Increase productivity across your team with tools designed to eliminate friction and reduce time spent on everyday workflows.<\/p>\n

With the new Activity Reassigner, you can update multiple tasks at once in a single action, saving time and reducing repetitive effort. Instead of editing activities one by one, quickly shift ownership and keep work moving without disruption.<\/p>\n

Enhancements like faster navigation response times and improved Outlook Sidebar reliability help reduce slowdowns, crashes, and interruptions during everyday work, whether you’re updating records in Act! or managing communication alongside your inbox.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”136755″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=””][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1757956760716{background-color: #F1F1F1 !important;}” el_id=”simplifypipeline”][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1741011315102{padding-top: 40px !important;padding-bottom: 40px !important;}”][vc_row_inner content_placement=”middle” gap=”10″ el_class=”actcrm-mobile-row-reverse”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”136962″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=””][vc_column_text css=””][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Clean and optimise your data with less effort<\/h3>\n

Maintaining accurate, organised data is critical, and Act! Premium v27.1 makes it easier to keep your database in shape.<\/p>\n

The No Associated Contacts feature helps you quickly identify and remove unused Companies, Groups, and Opportunities, reducing clutter and improving overall data quality. At the same time, enhancements like duplicate checking for primary contacts and smarter de-dupe warnings help prevent issues before they impact your workflows.<\/p>\n

With better visibility and control, your data stays cleaner, more reliable, and easier to work with across your entire system.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row el_id=”staycurrent”][vc_column][vc_row_inner content_placement=”middle” gap=”10″][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Gain better visibility across your customer data<\/h3>\n

Stay informed with a clearer, more complete view of customer interactions across your CRM.<\/p>\n

With OppHistory4act, activity history is automatically aligned between Opportunities and Contacts, ensuring nothing gets missed and your records stay consistent. Instead of piecing together information across records, you get a more unified view of engagement in one place.<\/p>\n

Enhancements like automatic history alignment between Contacts and Opportunities further improve visibility across your workflows, helping you stay confident in the information you rely on.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”136776″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=””][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n
